[brokenenglish]

Love SJP's Hampton house.

I love Cribs, it's the only thing I watch on MTV anymore.
Bjork's house in Iceland some years ago was very cool.
Does anyone else notice most athletes and rappers houses are usually all done in white/biege? Very nice but not very personal. Almost hotel like.

Kate Hudson's house was recently in W.
It's a beautiful beach house that she grew up in.

Great thread!

I know...rappers houses are always totally what you wouldnt expect

and the rest always say the same things, its like there is a script

" I like to have photos of my family everywhere "
" I didnt want to have a TV in here because i wanted to relax "
" This is my cinema where i always watch my favourite channel MTV "
" This is my wardrobe i dont know where anything is and its all in order "
" This is my bed its really nice because i like to sleep "
" This is my buddah "

Cher's Home from architecturaldigest.com

At Her Italian Renaissance-Style Refuge on a Malibu Bluff

"Every day when I wake up and look out my bedroom window, I’m never not amazed," marvels Cher, staring out one of a myriad of arched windows that define her house, a villa that sits high on a bluff overlooking the Pacific Ocean. "Every room has two views of the ocean, each of which is so beautiful—the water is always glistening, the sunset always happening. There’s no place else that I would rather be."

Cher commissioned designer and longtime friend Ron Wilson to decorate an Italian Renaissance-style residence in Malibu. "I’m comfortable here," says the singer-actress. "This house wraps its arms around me." "Cher was totally involved with the landscape design, which is unbelievable," says Wilson. "She’s very gifted."

Greta Garbo also from architectural digest online
(Her art is amazing!!)

The Legendary Star's Secret Garden in New York
By Gray Horan

One night Greta Garbo found herself dangling from the drainpipe outside of the bedroom window of her Los Angeles home, waiting for the prowler inside to finish prowling. Garbo decided it was time to move to New York, which offered both anonymity and doormen. She found a Manhattan apartment building with an illustrious list of tenants. Tickled by the legacy, she moved in.

Renoir's 1909 Léontine et Coco, which depicts the artist's son Claude, is displayed in the living room. Garbo had a passion for art and antiques and began collecting works by Renoir in the 1940s. Louis XV fauteuils attributed to Jean-Baptiste Tilliard flank the fireplace, where late-18th-century famille rose roosters are set alongside 19th-century Chinese porcelain boxes. The taboret is Louis XVI.

A carpet Garbo designed lines a hall, where a painting by her brother, Sven Gustafson, hangs above a Louis XV banquette. It was director Mauritz Stiller who brought then-19-year-old Greta Gustafson to the United States in 1925. A three-time Oscar nominee, Garbo was given a special 1954 Academy Award for her "unforgettable screen performances."

The "closet room," which Garbo created from a small library, is highlighted by one of the carpets she designed for her 1962 series, Birds in Flight. Over the closet is part of her collection of hats; others are stacked on a carved and painted Russian provincial tea table from circa 1880. Garbo chose the upholstery and drapery fabric, which features African tribal motifs.

Anjelica Houston - architectural digest online

The Artist Sculpts a Venice House for his Actress Wife
Text by Joseph Giovannini

To lure his new wife, Anjelica Huston, from Mulholland Drive to Venice Beach, Robert Graham decided he would build her ideal house, playing architect to her client. When Huston moved in her furniture to the completed Mexican-style courtyard home, she said, "I felt like a writer confronted by this beautiful vellum notebook that you then have to occupy."

"He gave me a very beautiful shell in which to place my oyster," says Anjelica Huston of her husband, sculptor Robert Graham, who designed their Venice, California, house.


"Bob is training me in restraint," says Huston, "but not in austerity or minimalism." In the living room, needlework pillows by Huston’s mother are scattered on the sofas. The harlequin tapestry is 19th-century French.

"With the courtyard and terraces, the house offers me a full interior and exterior life," Huston remarks. "I’m a Cancer. I have both of what I need here, which is comfort and places to escape to in the house and—so important—the sense of never feeling hemmed in."

Anjelica Houston's is beautiful!

T_T
all are such nice houses...dont really like sarah jessica's though..do like their kitchen and outdoor shower..nice!

[SiennaInLondon]

Sarah Jessica Parker: Possibly the ugliest interior I've seen. It looks like the Ikea catalogue
Cindy Crawford: Some things I don't like but this house is just breathtaking. The atmosphere is perfect. Light but lots of dark woods and a little colonial. The best of the bunch.
Cher: It is like Las Vegas. You can see what she was trying to achieve but it ended up like the tacky new world version.
Greta Garbo: SUCH a Garbo house. Very 1920s film star but all dark and reclusive like the great woman. I couldn't live in a house with red walls and so much darkness. How horrific.
Angelica Huston: Interesting but couldn't live there. I would feel like I was living in an igloo. It is too "well off architect living in the Hamptons" for me.
